Deadline Day from Pg.641 - Summer 2025 Charlton Athletic Transfer Rumours
Comments
-
Lots of comments about Oxford, but I think they will do better than Wrexham next season.
Wrexham look to need more of a re-set than us, and Oxford.10 -
Only way Gassan gets double figures in the championship is if we sent him on loan to the Scottish championshipWest2003 said:I’m getting a bit tired of the lack of respect being shown to Gassan on here. Mark my words, he’s getting into double figures for goals in the Championship for us next season. Put some respect on Ahadme’s name!2 -

Our owners get ridiculed for not spending money, but if a rumour comes out that they might do, then that gets moaned about. FFSSteven81 said:
If he produces moments of class that keep us in the division it can be as frivelous as it wants to be.JamAddick said:
Agree, that’s a lot of money to spend on a player turning 28 in Nov. I like us spending money but that seems like a frivolous way to spend itCrispywood said:
Wasn’t it rumoured there was one player deciding between us and another club whilst Costello was also visiting the club. Potentially DKD deciding between us and Oxford although can’t see us dropping 2.5M on one playerCroydon said:
Oxford fans think he's heading to themScoham said:https://www.thewrexhaminsider.com/transfer-news/the-defender-wrexham-would-like-to-sign-this-summer-named-amid-update-on-3m-target/“I’ve mentioned him a few times, Davis Keillor-Dunn. He increasingly looks closer and closer to going to Charlton, although I’m led to believe that Parky is still very much keeping tabs on that situation. My counter to that would be that they’ve known the price for a while £2.5m-£3m.
“If you really wanted to Davis Keillor-Dunn, you could have got that done by now.”

Fair enough, you have that view that we have a better togetherness, I believe every team will have their own story and way of them getting mentally prepared to play games so ours won't make too much difference vs the likes of Ipswich, Southampton, Sheffield United etc compared to playing against* Leyton Orient, Wycombe, Stockport etc.Yann897 said:
No I don’t think that many teams will have the momentum and togetherness we have that’s why so many managers come and go but I believe Jones will see out the season. The way you write on here is so condescending and rude pal.Braziliance said:
You think other teams don't have momentum and togetherness? It's not a Disney movie ffs 😂Yann897 said:
Or people do pay attention to the championship and other teams by side Charlton and just have a different opinion to you, I think you’re underestimating the momentum we have and the team Jones has built and the togetherness we have as a club the last 6 months.Braziliance said:
I think he might be connected tbf, not in the mafia way.sam3110 said:He's just done random Barnsley YouTuber
I think he is talking with far too much confidence with specifics to be wrong, let's see anyway.
This isn't a controversial opinion, this is the realistic opinion. All this talk of mid-table and comfortably staying up is pie in the sky stuff, unless we significantly strengthen.J BLOCK said:Athletico Charlton said:All this chat of us having signed lots of defenders. We needed them and I would suggest we still need two more. Squad currently looks something like the below to me...which means a RWB is absolute priority but another LB, CAM and Striker certainly wouldn't go amiss.
I am still hoping for 3 real stand out players in those positions who elevate the whole team to another level but I am likely being greedy.Kaminski

Controversial opinion, as it is, I think this team struggles
I think we have been out of the championship for too long and people don't pay attention to football other than Charlton, that or it is just a case of exreme optimism. A mid-table finish for Nathan Jones would deserve the manager of the season award.
I don't underestimate momentum or togetherness at all, it just isn't exclusive to Charlton Athletic. There will be 23 other teams that have their version of togetherness or momentum, or both.
So like I said, either just not being aware of how strong the championship is, or an extreme optimist if your view is that we can achieve mid-table.
I'm sorry if my messages are reading back as rude or condescending, on a read back I can see why they might, but it's not intended that way, not in a spiteful or arrogant way anyway.

Right now, I don’t see where the goals are going to come from. I think the defense as currently constructed is good enough to avoid the drop but we really need a couple decent players in the attack for me to feel comfortable that we won’t be in a relegation scrapBraziliance said:k

We laugh now, but when he's scoring hat-tricks for fun...West2003 said:I’m getting a bit tired of the lack of respect being shown to Gassan on here. Mark my words, he’s getting into double figures for goals in the Championship for us next season. Put some respect on Ahadme’s name!
There is a part of me that thinks it is just a question of supplying the right kind of pass into him.
Admittedly, there is also a part of me that thinks I'm devilishly handsome and that what I laughingly describe as a personality is endearingly attractive, despite far too many years of others disabusing me of such notions.3 -
Fingers' crossed it doesn't stay that way throughout the season.DOUCHER said:

Lots of people predicted Wrexham would struggle last year too. They need to strengthen, but as much as I would like to see them struggle, I don't see it happening.stoneroses19 said:
I wasn't surprised Wrexham went up last season, as their way of spending made sure they sped through the lower leagues. But I think the whole fairytale will crash for Wrexham as the season starts, they're not good enough for Championship (as there squad currently is) and Parkinson definitely isn't.MarcusH26 said:
Yeah I think they could be in trouble unless they get this supposed chequebook out of theirs. Played functional football and I don't rate Parky at this level.AllHailTheHen said:
Unless Wrexham start pulling some more signings out of the bag I reckon they will also be in the mix. Their style of football was functional rather than spectacular.Croydon said:
The drop will be between Oxford, Hull, Pompey and Sheff Wed. I think we'll be comfortable and end up around 16th/17th.J BLOCK said:
Disagree big time on the mid table finish. This league is relentless and currently I think we have a strong league one team.Yann897 said:
It’s not gonna be easy but I still think we’ll finish around mid table, surprised people haven’t mentioned Portsmouth being weak this season I don’t think their team is all that. I still think we’ll bring in another 4 by the end of the window as we’ll have 3/4 leave.J BLOCK said:Athletico Charlton said:All this chat of us having signed lots of defenders.

Do agree on Portsmouth, they go down next season for me.Think he'll be gone early (one of first Championship managers to go) and then they'll sort themselves out with big January spend and stay up.7 -

Remember we started slow last year and I think that was previously a characteristic of Jones' teams at Luton as well from memory. Will be an adjustment period for the squad and for us having got used to winning most weeks!0

Think we’re going to be in a relegation scrap regardless if we do get in another good attacker or 2 the quality of the championship is just so much higher than L1.Bostonaddick said:

Can’t argue with that.👌ShootersHillGuru said:
Not me. I thought Nathan Jones was a busted flush and his football was shite. Actually didn’t call for his head because I accepted that we couldn’t keep sacking managers but was convinced he wasn’t the answer. I’ve not eaten humble pie because it doesn’t do my climb down justice. I think he’s absolutely what Charlton Athletic need. You can praise the owners for supporting him but he pretty much on his own has turned around everything about the club. He’s united every facet of the club and given us back pride and hope in our club.eastterrace6168 said:RonnieMoore said:
Some fans … most understood that it was a project and nothing was going to be done overnight and plus we had 10 players missing through injuryeastterrace6168 said:
Fans weren't happy of course, but the board were backing him...ThomasOliver3 said:
Didn't he say himself that fans were calling for his head after the Crawley defeat - I seem to remember there being a lot of pressure at that pointeastterrace6168 said:
That's a bit steep, I don't think Nathan's job was ever in jeopardy, he was finding his best formation and line-up, which came good in December iirc...ThomasOliver3 said:Interestingly (well maybe) there was a lot of talk on NTT20 about how the majority of team pivoted away from a back 3 over the course of last season and back to a back four, maybe there will be a change to combat this.
I guess at this stage don't know. NJ seemed very fixed on one formation at the start of the season, it almost got him sacked and we went then through a few formations before landing on the strange lop-sided 352 we saw success with. Maybe the same happens this season.

Revenue in the championship is £10m+ more than it is in league 1. Still lose a lot of money of course, but we can spend a lot more at this level, which we are doing this summerbalham red said:
